The comics journal - Tom Spurgeon

Celebrates the great comic book writers, culled from the pages of America's most respected comics magazine. Between 1966 and 1985 a generation of writers emerged who changed the face of American comic books forever. These writers breathed new life into the dying icons of the past: Len Wein, Harlan Ellison, Gerry Conway, Chris Claremont, Steve Englehart, Steve Gerber, Marv Wolfman, Archie Goodwin, Denny O'Neil, Mark Evanier, Mike Baron and Alan Moore. This book celebrates the ascendancy of writer-driven mainstream comic books with revealing, in-depth interviews.
